Petition to reduce the speed limit on B2169 (Bayham Road)

23/11/2016 - Petition to reduce the speed limit on B2169 (Bayham Road)

21.1     The Lead Member considered a report by the Director of Communities, Economy and Transport.

 

DECISION

 

21.2     RESOLVED to advise the petitioners (1)  that a reduced speed limit on this part of the B2169 Bayham Road is not a priority for the County Council, given its relatively good safety record; and

 

(2) that Frant Parish Council may wish to consider funding a lower speed limit on this part of the B2169 Bayham Road through the Community Match fund scheme.

 

Reasons

 

21.3     The B2169 has a relatively good safety record, and the Road Safety team has no objection in principle to a lower speed limit.
